Kittyhawk Down by Garry Disher
'A master storyteller' - GUARDIAN'A superb chronicler of cop culture' - SUNDAY TIMES'Crime fiction at its best' - AGEEVERY COLD CASE DESERVES JUSTICEA cloud of despondency hangs over the Mornington Peninsula. A decomposing corpse is fished out the sea but cannot be identified. A two-year-old is missing, but without sufficient evidence the Waterloo Police can't charge their lead suspect. And what was a simple case of burning letterboxes has quickly escalated into torched stolen cars. Something has to give. And then Kitty Casement - aerial photographer and friend of Detective Inspector Hal Challis - is driven off the road, her plane damaged and her life under threat. Is this another case doomed to run cold, or could it provide the break they need? From the multiple Ned Kelly Award-winning author of Consolation and Day's End comes the second Hal Challis investigation, for readers of Jane Harper, Ian Rankin and Chris Hammer.
